Hunted.

Side 1:

First, it was all rumours, and like every other rumour, it  was spreading with light speed,

The topic: A big dawg' was threatened to get exposed by an unknown, who by all means would be placeed as a smaller dawg'

who this smaller 'dawg' was, was not certain yet,

No one knew what was up, we at the periferals of the inner circle had just a little clue, one of us was surely going to be the smaller dawg' with the threat, it was almost certain.

The question was, who?

6pm, on a chill out, sipping palm liquor on my balcony, after being disappointed by Tola, our fight the day before, her anger towards me, I decided to take a walk, spend some lone time out in the streets like the normal folks do. Just 16yards covered, I noticed I was quitely being followed.

The first man was lanky, he wore a black shirt in a brown jacket, he had ear phones on and a black sun shade at about 6:25pm which really was odd to me,

the second man was average, no sun shade on, he actually didn't need any of those to look like a hitman. it was clear enough to me that he wasn't defiling his steps, he came straight at me,

well, I thought to my self, I could take on that guy and end it in few minutes, however the other lanky one seemed more to me like the problem.

It was a sharp and hot scratch at the back of my head, I  got too surprised to pay attention to it and the fact that the hit didn't make me slow then in a few seconds, it occurred to me that it was a real bullet. A second sound came, then I was sure this time, by all means I was being lucky or they wanted me in one piece.

At that point, all my instinct said was, Run!, we can check for scratches on your head later, at the moment, you are alive, Just RUN.

Then I Ran, and predictably, they pursued me.

(#Black and Black Is a series you will find interesting. A young man trying to understand the things around him. However  some things cannot be understood.)  1 - Kenne Can you creat scenarios?  Let me make you creat one.  Imagine you are walking in a hall with people in it and everyone turns at every step, staring at you for about 5secs.  even after your walk, people still turn to make glances. You can imagine can't you? Well anyways. Oguguo street, quite large to be a street. Sorry I'm not hiding any secrets in this book, Nigerians read a lot now. Back to business Oguguo villa, There you can make your home, there you can call your home. Quite traditional, but it's  home. I found myself being a local here. I see it as a privilege actually. The palm trees stand in place by the road side, the  modern town hall make it seem like a city in a village, farming took place properly at its time(season), during this  period, you get to see how wide the vill...

episode 8 - 'Some Authority shit'. At a time , when young people found something to keep themselves busy came so much outburst and disgust from authorities within the country. so while they (young people) were busy reaping off some cool easy cash with less stress and mild work, "something called working the street," living loud and noisy, they became potential targets for the Efcc and most especially the Police, and also small security units in each state within the country, my statistics has it that, out of every seven male adults from ages 18 to 30, at least one "worked the street".. now who's checking? At this time, it was forbidden for young males to wear deadlocks, ear rings, and tattoos; basically looking dope and fly was being frowned at by these authorities then to make things worse for you, get spotted with all these in a car and be below the age 24 and you'll be tagged a "fraudster." here's the irony; the authorities thinks...

Life in my 20s

Some times it is said that some know knowledge comes at a certain age, and with this knowledge are feelings of self consciousness and Awareness, Life in one's 20s is war. On one hand, you have your freedom and independence, bolder, more confident and all; on the other hand you battle with self-imposed pressure from too much measuring and having no clue what the hell you're doing with your life. This is the case most of the time. While it is not the hardest phase of human life, 20s is that time when you're finally left alone in the driver's seat and you quickly realize what that means. That you're fully responsible for any decisionyou make for yourself, And sometimes when you fail at something, it seems more like a complete failure. It's easy to start imagining yourself a failure, but when you look at it, you see that you only started and all the failures, inconsistencies, and not-knowing-what-the-hell-youre doingw your life" is actually necessary. The s...
